B’s Boy makes good.

Nathan the dynamo behind the recently disbanded Vincent Vegas and one of Lori b!’s boys makes a very strong debut statement with his Evil Woman Walk Away CD.

Nathan's plays guitar with a power and subtly that is masterful. Were many with Moody’s talent would be tempted to show off just fiery licks and Van Halen quickness, Nathan relies on his instruments dynamics to entertain. Sure, there are advanced, quick, burning solos on this disk, however it is the quieter moments I enjoyed. The key to Evil Woman may well be Nathan's balancing act. You will find yourself reveling in the contrast of hard and soft, fast and slow of his music.

Must not have been the best of years for Nathan on the romantic front. The title tracks lyrics bristles with romantic tension. Other songs refer to pistol packin mamas and other vamps. Like many a great musicain before him Nathan leverages his heartache into fantastic songs.

My only concern about this disc is a minor one. The production is a bit over the top at times. Lot’s of overdubbing and fancy audio tricks. For my vote the strong material sometimes gets burried behind the flash. nathan-web.jpg

Nathan, my friend this is a great CD. You have come a long ways in a very short time.
